The majority of our buyers are locals who are looking to upsize in the area or people from more central London locations including Battersea and Fulham who are in search of more space for their money.

The Upper Richmond Road originally connected a ferry crossing at Putney with the Archbishop’s Palace at Mortlake and the Royal Palace at Richmond.

East Sheen was originally a hamlet within the manor of Mortlake, which was listed in the Domesday book. Henry VIII granted the manor of Mortlake to his sixth wife, Katherine Parr and retained it for his own personal use.
